Two of my favorite classes in college were The History of Graphic Design and Art History. I found both fascinating and would pore over the books for hours, captivated by the design, typography and color in the artwork by famous graphic designers and artists. That's probably why I managed to get an "A" in both classes!
There are so many graphic designers and artists whose work have inspired me throughout the years. It's impossible to list them all but here are a few of my favorites.
Milton Glaser
Herb Lubalin
Paul Rand
Saul Bass
Jan Tschichold
Henri Matisse
